Content review and substantive editing are perhaps the most vital aspects of the editor’s role, and they constitute the bulk of the required work of editors. Each editor is to solicit and/or review proposed SHARIAsource submissions from scholars working in his or her area who wish to contribute primary sources to the Portal or source comments on the Blog. We ask that editors make an initial determination as to the quality of the proposed contribution, make a recommendation of acceptance or rejection to the coordinating editor, and work with the contributor to edit their piece and upload it to the Portal or the Blog.
SHARIAsource editors solicit or receive proposed primary source posts for the SHARIAsource Portal or source commentary for the Blog. After checking to ensure that the IP permissions enable publication for primary sources (see IP policies), and that the format and content meet the requirements for source comments, please make a recommendation to our coordinating editor to accept or reject the post using this form.
